My bad add an extra 2 zeros.

Remind us again how you got your money again? Wasn't it something along the line of playing the lottery or gambling with bitcoin/crypto?
Tell us again how holy and self righteous you are please.

It's not important, I commend anyone who can live comfortably without taking any government assistance.
I dislike pointless accumulation for no purpose beyond vanity.
Every billionaire wishes they had another billion dollars, I am happy where I am and am not doing anything to make any more aside from real estate and a few crypto holds that I don't want to pay capital gains on.

I am of the same opinion and have respect for cashiers, garbage collectors or all other jobs which don't look prestigious enough but grant people to live without being dependent on benefits.
However, you're mistaken why people look to amass more and more money beyind basic needs. Money is there for them to acquire power. They steive for more power and not more money per say.

LOL There are millions of people who live perfectly happy and healthy lives without being married or having kids. Regret and being married/kids are not necessarily mutually inclusive.
What you are doing is projecting popular opinion as ultimate truth.

To elucidate statistically if you have regret that will translate to being unhappy later in life. Generally speaking if you don't have family around when you are over 60 or 70 it likely you will be lonelier it basically gives you another reason to wake up every day.
So if you don't have any plans for old age or are a peasant start making babies now in hopes they take care of your crusty ass in the future.

Think about which group of people in constantly here posting how other people should think and act.
I am a real libertarian, not the type that thinks we should just let corporations walk all over us, the kind that just wants everyone left alone unless they are killing, molesting, assaulting or stealing from some one else.
We need about 20,000 less laws and for people to just mind their own business.

i dont need a man women and i dont need no kids people are the same. they're selfish and value independence over security, and will regret it later in life.

the women hit mid 30s to early 40s and all of their friends are married with children and very busy. they spend all month begging for a girls night and when it comes are disappointed to find their friends dont want to stay out drinking and dancing until 2 am.

the no kids people hit the first wave of regret at the same time, all of their friends are busy with kids and dont have time for them. they try to fill the hole with vacations and hobbies but it never really fixes it. then one day they're 60-70 and they're the cool aunt/uncle who's lucky to get a visit a few times a year. then later they are in a nursing home they're paying for with a reverse mortgage and have no one to even bother calling them.

pretty true. on the flipside, even the women with men emit some weird comparative energy. always comparing their relationship to their friends on social media who are married. sometimes can cause the relationships to speed up all for the sake of "joining them" if you will. (this is just another cancer of social media i guess). my personal opinion is all relationships are different and comparing yours to others is unhealthy

You have explicitly expressed your wish for all people who denied the Covid vaccine to die if they don’t follow Covid guidelines.


You are a real libertarian :rofl: :rofl:

You know I didn't want to answer with a wall of text because some things are obvious but I have to elaborate obvious things apparently: why are you trying to normalize outliers as the rule of the society? Yeah, some people grow up old alone. Some learn to cope with it, some are very sad. Probably most are sad but they can't do anything about it. You just see them from time to time with their cat +wine or the male version with that forest dude.

Now, tell me, can you make a healthy, well functioning society with people like those? Let's say, making them 30-40% of the society would kill the society. The fact that you sit there behind the screen and type something is thanks to a mother and dad who brought you to this world and invested time+money to raise you. Would they be able to do that in a non functioning society?
Of course, there will always be people who lose on the dating market or aren't interested at some point anymore but that shouldn't be something a society should thrive for.

Once again, I ask you to go back to your cellar and leave this thread alone.
